FOSS4G2018MAIN is the call for papers to the main conference. This is NOT the academic track which has a separate call for papers.

Submission Guidelines

Presentations in this category are be regular talks (20 minutes plus 5 minutes for Q&A). We expect to have 150-200 talks selected through this call. The selected presentations will be organized into approximately 6 parallel tracks.

Projectors will be available for the presentation. The presenters are adviced not to rely on access to internet for their presentations.

A big conference like this requires timeliness from the presenter. This means that the presentation starts on time and ends after no more than 25 minutes. Empty slots will not lead to rescheduling of talks.
